        "We need to select the kind of model to train. There are many types of models and picking a good one takes experience. This tutorial uses a neural network to solve the Iris classification problem. *[Neural networks](https://developers.google.com/machine-learning/glossary/#neural_network)* can find complex relationships between features and the label. It is a highly-structured graph, organized into one or more *[hidden layers](https://developers.google.com/machine-learning/glossary/#hidden_layer)*. Each hidden layer consists of one or more *[neurons](https://developers.google.com/machine-learning/glossary/#neuron)*. There are several categories of neural networks and this program uses a dense, or *[fully-connected neural network](https://developers.google.com/machine-learning/glossary/#fully_connected_layer)*: the neurons in one layer receive input connections from *every* neuron in the previous layer. For example, Figure 2 illustrates a dense neural network consisting of an input layer, two hidden layers, and an output layer:\n",
